Using sdhc card from boot

My Eee PC 901 runs Ubuntu. I have no hard disk, but just an internal sd card, and an additional inserted sdhc card in the sd card slot.
I wanted to have all my /home stuff on the external card, so that in case of crash, I can just buy a new card. The internal card is more difficult to replace, so I want to use the external card for whatever possible.

As the ext card has my /home directory, I need it to be available on boot.

With lsusb I found the details of my card, and then added an udev rule

jan@eee901:~/svn/hydra_test$ more /etc/udev/rules.d/01-jankester.rules
#ID_SERIAL_SHORT=058F63356336
#ID_FS_UUID=dd4cb63c-0329-4dc6-8ca8-c2e68b9d233e
BUS=="usb", KERNEL=="sd*", SYSFS{serial}=="058F63356336", NAME="SDHC", OPTIONS+="last_rule", RUN+="/bin/mount /dev/SDHC"

Now I added entry in fstab:
/dev/SDHC /home ext3 defaults,noatime 0

Interactive selenium testing

The problem Location of elements When I started using selenium, I noticed that it is not easy to do it right. First you start with IDE, but you notice, that the IDE does not really record a lot. In a next step I added firebug, and started analyzing how the elements where to be located: either by tag, id, class etc. Junit testcase With this information I could then create my junit testcase: @Test public void testMapView() throws Exception { //assert that we cannot see submenu of MapCreator elem = driver.findElement(By.className(SeleniumConstants.MAP_SUB_MENU)); String style = elem.getAttribute("style"); assertTrue("Element must have style display off.",style.matches("display: none.*")); logger.debug("Located element " + SeleniumConstants.MAP_SUB_MENU); //find menu and click on mapview elem = driver.findElement(By.id(SeleniumConstants.MAP_CONTROL)); actions.moveToElement(elem).click().perform(); //assert su...

Create a groovy console and bind to selenium

Required groovy files In the previous posting we defined the pom file that we need for our build environment. Now we will setup some groovy files to get selenium and groovy running interactively. ConsoleWaiter.groovy The idea of Groovy Console I found on some other sides. Honour goes for instance too: http://josefbetancourt.wordpress.com/tag/eclipse-2/ I copied some code of this, and put it under src/test/groovy/com/jankester/selenium/test/utils: package com.jankester.selenium.test.utils /** * File: ConsoleWaiter.groovy */ import groovy.lang.Binding; import groovy.ui.Console; /** * Provides a wrapper for the console. * * Based on source by John Green * Adapted from: http://www.oehive.org/files/ConsoleWaiter.groovy * Released under the Eclipse Public License * http://www.eclipse.org/legal/epl-v10.html * * I added methods to allow use from Java. * * The run() method launches the console and causes this thread * to sleep until the console's window is closed....
